Equeen posted:Can you elaborate, I'm not quite sure what you mean here? Azzarello is co-writing DKIII and will probably be the one to tone down or rework any of Miller's crazy ideas. That's a very optimistic assumption. Miller is on a whole 'nother level, as far as extant creative clout with DC, than Azzarello. If it comes down to Miller vs Azzarello on some crazy, controversial plot idea, the odds are VERY good that DC editorial will side with Miller, citing that long-past era where he was legitimately one of the best comic makers in the world. That residual glow of talent is, after all, why they're paying him to do DKIII in the first place, and DC likely knows that arguing over Miller's insanity is a great way to ensure that the book is never completed.

Toadstrieb posted:I really don't get how anyone could produce this piece and think, "hey, it's good enough work to go to mass market bearing my name". Liefeld's a name, he's created a few notable characters, and he's more or less consistent as an artist and creator. Sure, his art is not good, but it sells, and you can reasonably expect him to finish a project on time. It also probably helps that unlike other names, Liefeld isn't hard to get.

Bombadilillo posted:He did confirm that rescue rangers started as literally Magnum PI with cartoons, when they sat down to write they said, "well we cant have them doing drugs" so the added other things to make it what it became. Its just interesting to me that the base wasn't The Rescuers, or Indian Jones, loving Magnum PI was the foundation! Makes sense to me. Magnum PI was one of America's biggest cultural trends during the time period in which Rescue Rangers was in development. If you're going to spoof more mature entertainment with mass appeal via a kids cartoon show in the early 90s, Magnum PI is a no-brainer.

Rhyno posted:What an awesome dude. You heard stories? I just assumed he was a whacko because he always plays a whacko. Like how Crispin Glover always plays awkward-to-the-point-of-seeming-alien weirdos because he's legitimately an awkward-to-the-point-of-seeming-alien weirdo in reality. Glad to hear D'Onofrio is just a cool guy who's really good at acting.

Lurdiak posted:Don Heck is what you would call a journeyman artist, and I have nothing but respect for him. I think the biggest problem with Don Heck is that his style is so aesthetically synonymous with the era it was created in that it's hard not to view it was antiquated, and sadly, Heck lacks the kind of outre, surreal genius of Jack Kirby that makes his relatively dated style still amazing. Heck's work is solid and even impressive for its era, but it's not quite impressive enough to be timeless.

GPTribefan posted:Not really.... he had his own style in Amazing Spider-Man that didn't really homage anyone. And once he got off the Kirby riff he went for a Simonson vibe on Thor. His 90s Fantastic Four was decent, but never had a Kirby feel to it. I always loved Frenz' work, he always had some dynamic covers and solid interiors. You could do a lot worse than aping Walt Simonson on a Thor run. Like, for instance, not aping Walt Simonson.

Lobok posted:To me it's honestly still hard to believe that we got the Hulkbuster armour in action in not just one film, but two. It wasn't that long ago that it would show up in a list along the likes of "did you know Spider-Man once beat up a herald of Galactus?" or "did you know Captain America was a werewolf for a while?" Now it's common knowledge among the general public. Speaking of which, I’d pay good money to see Spider-Man’s dune buggy in the MCU.

Teenage Fansub posted:Art from 70 year old legend, José Luis García-López for the upcoming Action Comics #1000 It's the facial variation that really gets me. Every person is unique and expressive, with appropriate emotions clearly visible in their expressions. It's a subtle thing, but it's so damned impressive compared to the vast majority of other artists.

Rotten Red Rod posted:Honestly, putting aside the quality of Miller's art skill, I just don't get the splatter. If he wanted to add a little artistic flair to the image with an ink splatter, why go overboard like that? You can barely make out most of Superman's body, nullifying most of the work he did. Why do it at this stage, and not during color? And what thematic reason relating to Superman is there for that ink splatter, anyway? The answer to that question (and all questions regarding Miller's work over the prior two decades) is "9/11 broke his loving brain."

Lurdiak posted:Ditko was a fan of idealized individualism and believed blaming personal failings on society just gave people an excuse to be lovely. He felt that art that communicated powerlessness in the face of systemic problems was weak and morally bankrupt. He felt that art should "elevate the common man". Basically if your life sucks, you have the power to change it and it's nobody else's fault, and trying to blame the world for your lot can only make you a villain. So ... Ditko probably voted for Trump, huh?

Wally West is somehow involved (in what way and why is the mystery of the series.) That spoiler text sounds like an interesting direction. Is it actually interesting, or should I just assume DC will/has already hosed it up in the usual DC fashion?

Rotten Red Rod posted:Yeah it's pretty bizarre. Regardless, I can find photos of physical printed versions of the issue that don't have the error. Maybe a marketing person messed up when sending out promo images and grabbed the wrong one? Hard to say, but I doubt you can blame Miller as the computer part of the drawing is not his part. I seem to remember that hosed up photoshop version appearing on these forums (to much mockery) well before the book shipped, so I think you're right about it being a pre-release promo image. I could be misremembering though.
